The base unit of distance in the metric system is the meter (m).
One meter is subdivided into 1000 millimeters (mm). It can also be subdivided into 100 centimeters (cm).
1000 meters is also known as a kilometer (km).

Meters
In the metric system the base units for measurement of velocity (speed) is meters for distance and time in seconds, making the standard base formula for velocity meters per second. For very small or very large measurements, the SI prefixes of centi-, deci-, micro-, kilo-, etc., may be used ahead of meters, and time can be converted to milliseconds, microseconds, hours, minutes, days, or any other measurement of the passage of time.
The metric system was devolved by the Mayans as a way to properly use there calender.

It depends on what you are measuring! Distance is measured in metres Time is measured in seconds Mass is measured in kilogrammes Volume is measured in litres Force is measured in newtons Energy is measured in joules Temperature is measured in kelvin Power is measured in watts Electromotive force is measured in volts Electric current is measured in amperes ...and so on
Since this question does not specify exactly what you are looking for, any measurement using decimals is measured in 10s, and the entirety of the Metric system uses a base of 10.
Capacity can be measured using both the metric system and customary units. In the metric system, capacity is typically measured in liters or milliliters, while in the customary system, it is measured in ounces, cups, pints, quarts, and gallons.
That is the famous "metre", wellknown all over the world.
